# Errors when trying to create child theme

 * Hi there
 * I’m trying to create a GP child theme just so I can tinker with a couple of settings
   for a restaurant menu plugin I’m using (basic things like changing background-
   image attributes from cover to contain, for example), but using the Child Theme
   Configurator plugin I get a load of errors when analysing the parent theme. (
   pasted at the end of the message, replacing URL with *)
 * Any ideas if:
    (a) I need to resolve these in the parent theme? (b) They stop
   me from creating a reliable child theme? and (c) Could I just tweak such simple
   things in the parent theme, rather than create a child theme for such simple 
   tweaks?
 * Full disclosure – I was always just a part-time self taught WP site builder, 
   and haven’t really played within WP for years. Maybe tell me like I’m 5! 😀
 * Thank you in advance,
    Caroline

 * Hi [@cazcrosslandweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cazcrosslandweb/),
 * The error is linking to the GP Premium plugin.
 * Can you try reuploading the plugin?
 * Moreover, WordPress does not allow support for Premium features/issues.
 * You may reach out to our forums for premium support.
